After a busy weekend of customers stocking up on the essentials, it was a day of re-stocking shelves at Sparkle Market in Niles. Heating up holiday leftovers is part of one mom's plan to keep her family warm. 

"The game plan is I'm going to make chili and different soups with my leftover ham and turkey, we're going to play board games, Wii and different things and stay inside and stay warm," Angel Grantz says, of Mineral Ridge.

Space heaters of all sizes are top sellers at Home Depot in the Eastwood Mall Complex.

"It's not necessary to wrap pipes that are indoors, that are heated all the time, but it does help save on heating and cooling costs just to keep them insulated, so you don't have that heat loss, but your main thing you need to be concerned with is exposed pipes," Amy Shafer says, with Home Depot.
